You can use your Ohm meter to check the primary windings. If it has no internal res., use the Pink wire OR a firewall resistor.Įven though Coils are oil-filled, they get hot and sometimes open. If it has internal resistance, use a straight wire from your IGN terminal. Turn it upside down and look for the words, 'Int Res'. I tape the first cigarette-lap backwards (so the splices don't get all gooped-up and black), then turn the tape over and continue back with the glue on the bottom.Ĭheck your coil.
If you have several wires to connect, a longer screw and a few washers work well. Ring terminals work best because they can always be reconnected. My preference is to lug and crimp all wires and tightly connect them under a screw (or nut).
You show pictures of splices in the middle of your wires. Pull on your distributor wire (12216), check for internal broken wires, good connections, and make sure your ground wire (12264) screws are tight. Sometimes they short to ground which bypasses the points and renders them useless. If you don't have a good ground on your distributor, you will NOT get a spark.Īlso, if your condensor is bad you won't get a spark. Yes : check coil, points, condensor, and ground connection.I can't agree more. I've added a diagram modified to show how my wiring attaches. Does anyone have a picture of the back of the ignition switch that shows where the pink wire should connect? I am not sure it is connected to the correct post. There is a pink wire connected to the ignition switch.I have not yet check for continuity to the pink wire at the firewall however I assuming is is the same until I can ohm the wire. At the firewall the red/green is joined by a brown wire that comes from the starter solenoid and both connect to a pink wire that runs through the firewall. I have a red/green wire that runs back to the firewall. When attempting to start the engine I do not have a spark.Īt the coil I have a black wire connected to the neg side of the battery that comes from the distributor. Please note that I do not have an overdrive solenoid - I am working with a 352 and Cruise-o-matic. With one exception the pink resister wire is replaced with a pink non-resister wire. I am using reproduction wiring harnesses that matched the orig. I know that my coil is not properly connected, but I am confused by the many different wiring diagrams I have.
